Homemade pasta

29 January 2009

It's not all just hanging around, drinking rum and watching sunsets. Today we made pasta from scratch. Inspired by the Naked Chef, we used the recipe and instruction from his book Cook with Jamie ("just brilliant") and employed a pasta maker we acquired from Scott and Freddie back in DC. (Speaking of DC, anyone note the Frager's T-shirt?)

Here Bill is helping by strewing pasta wherever he can to dry. Way at the top of the photo you can barely see where he has run a pvc pipe across to serve as a drying rack. Yep, pvc pipe - proving once again its invaluable versatility.
